Abstract: An escapement mechanism including a dual-forked lever having a pivot suitable for movement of the lever between a first pivot limit and a second pivot limit, and at least two rounded follower elements spaced from the pivot and at a predetermined distance from each other. At least one of the follower elements is mounted on each fork of the lever and each follower element lacks a locking face. At least one escape wheel has an outer periphery defining at least a first plurality of cam elements suitable to slidably contact and drive the rounded follower elements, and each cam element lacks a locking surface where contact is made with the follower elements.

Abstract: A timepiece regulator includes a detached lever escapement mechanism and a resonator with a quality factor Q including an inertia element. An impulse pin is integral with an inertia element and cooperates with a fork of the lever. The inertia element is subjected to the action of an elastic return directly or indirectly fixed to the plate and arranged to cooperate indirectly with an escape wheel set included in the escapement mechanism. The resonator mechanism is a resonator with a virtual pivot rotating about a main axis, with a flexure bearing subjected to the return force of at least two flexible strips attached to the plate, defining together a virtual pivot with a main axis. The lever pivots about a secondary axis. The lever is made of silicon added to an arbor pivoted with respect to the plate.
